Dealer Comments

Meet the SUV that's equal parts practical, adventurous, and just plain smart: the **2021 Subaru Forester Premium**. If reliability had a personality, it would probably drive one of these (and bring snacks for the road trip).

Powered by a 2.5L SUBARU BOXER engine and paired with a Lineartronic CVT, the Forester delivers a smooth, fuel-efficient ride with confidence built in. Subaru's legendary Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive comes standard, giving you year-round traction on rain, snow, or gravel.

Inside, the Forester Premium is all about comfort meeting capability. You'll enjoy heated front seats, a 10-way power drivers seat, panoramic power moonroof, and generous passenger space that keeps everyone happy, even on long drives. Need cargo room? With up to 76.1 cubic feet of space, this Forester is ready for everything from groceries to camping gear (and maybe even that impulse furniture purchase).

Tech-savvy? You're covered. Subaru STARLINK infotainment keeps you connected with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth®, and a user-friendly touchscreen. Visibility is top-notch thanks to Subaru's raised seating position and large windows, because seeing everything around you is always a good idea.

Now let's talk safety, because Subaru takes it seriously. This 2021 Forester Premium comes equipped with EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, including adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, pre-collision braking, and more. It's like having an extra set of eyes on the road, minus the backseat driving.

And here's where peace of mind shifts into high gear. This Forester is part of the **McCarthy Subaru of Lawrence Certified Pre-Owned Program**, meaning it comes with a **Free Warranty, a thorough Inspection Checklist, and additional ownership benefits** that make buying pre-owned feel like a brand-new decision.
